The preparation method of nanostructure cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis
The present invention relates to a kind of take hexagonal boron nitride and diamond mixed powder or cubic boron nitride and diamond mixed powder as starting material, pass through purifying treatment, the method of preparing high performance and nano structure cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis superhard material under superhigh-pressure high-temp condition, belongs to field of inorganic nonmetallic material.
Technical background
Diamond and cubic boron nitride are most widely used two kinds of superhard materials in current industry.Diamond is occurring in nature the hardest known material, there is high wear resistance, ultimate compression strength, rate of heat release, diamond single crystal is expensive and have the face of dissociating, and in industry, a lot of fields replace diamond single crystal with the higher polycrystalline diamond material of cost performance.Polycrystalline diamond is widely used in non-ferrous metal and the machining of iron containing alloy not, and oil and gas and mining industry are surveyed and adopted, wood floors processing and other fields.The hardness of cubic boron nitride is about adamantine half, to be only second to adamantine the second hard material, but cubic boron nitride has the thermostability higher than diamond and is difficult for and ferro element generation chemical reaction, thereby can be used for processing ferrous metal or iron containing alloy, cubic boron nitride monocrystal is expensive and have the face of dissociating, and in industry, a lot of fields replace cubic boron nitride monocrystal by the higher Polycrystalline Cubic Boron Nitride of cost performance.Polycrystalline cubic boron nitride is owing to having higher red hardness, compared with high wear resistance and high thermostability and be widely used in the machining of ferrous metal and iron containing alloy.
Cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis material has been taken into account the advantage of polycrystalline diamond and polycrystalline cubic boron nitride, cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis sintered compact that system passes is after adding the metal-powders such as (or not adding direct sintering) Co, Ni, TiC, TiN evenly to mix in artificial cubic boron nitride and diadust, a kind of super-hard compound material that sintering forms under high pressure-temperature, it shows isotropy and higher hardness and toughness in macroscopic view, and application performance is in some aspects better than polycrystalline diamond and polycrystalline cubic boron nitride.But traditional artificial cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis material, because granularity is larger, is difficult to reach planeness and the sharpness for hyperfine cutting tool cutting edge.In addition, traditional artificial cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis material contains binding agent mostly, as Co, Ni etc., has a strong impact on hardness, wear resistance, the thermostability of cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis material.
Utilizing hexagonal boron nitride and diamond mixed powder or cubic boron nitride and diamond mixed powder is starting material, prepares reporting for work of high performance and nano structure cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis and also do not occur under superhigh-pressure high-temp.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is in order to overcome the deficiency in above-mentioned traditional man-made polycrystalline diamond, polycrystalline cubic boron nitride, cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis material preparation technology, disclose a kind ofly take hexagonal boron nitride and diamond mixed powder or cubic boron nitride and diamond mixed powder as starting material, in starting material, the shared massfraction of diamond is 10%-90%.By to starting material purifying treatment, under superhigh-pressure high-temp, prepare the method for high performance and nano structure cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis material.
The method of nanostructure cubic boron nitride-dimond synneusis material of preparation of the present invention is carried out in accordance with the following steps:
